Episode notes
Market Prices In Tariff Optimism
- Economic growth hopes are weighed against tariff risks and slowing economy signs.
- Much of the good news from tariffs and deregulation appears already priced into the market.
Supply-side Economics Fueling Market
- The current policy is classic supply-side economics aiming for growth through spending incentives.
- This could justify the market's relatively high valuation if longer growth emerges.
Momentum Stocks Drive Rally Comfort
- Momentum stocks heavily support the current rally, especially in lower quality and high beta shares.
- Correction in momentum stocks this quarter may be healthy for the bull market's longevity.
